(doc# : bran34d018) In this presentation, IEEE802.15.mm-WIG has been introduced to ETSI BRAN. European frequency issues are under investigation towards next BRAN meeting. Following companies have already expressed their support for the creation of 60GHz working group in BRAN (Motorola, France Telecom, Intracom, Thomson Multimedia, CEA LETI, IMST, TNO)
